Trying to Translate

I'm trying to learn Spanish by watching telenovelas. Please share your comments about the shows, too. I know I'm not the only English-speaking person who's hooked on telenovelas!

Heridas de Amor - Episode 12

All the stock exchanges in the world dropped 3.5%, setting off a financial panic. This is good for Cesar, who apparently made money from it, but bad for Julio and Gonzalo's business.

Fernanda told Alejandro that Florencia is pregnant, saying, "Not only will it cause her health to deteriorate, her medicine is bad for the baby." She decided to go to the wedding, apparently to bring new medicine to Florencia.

At the office, Nuria told Cesar that she is pregnant. He said insultingly, "Congratulations. Who is the father?" Nuria said, "You know you are the only man it could be!" Cesar grabbed Nuria and shouted at her. Julio came in, saw this, and fired Cesar.

Florencia apologized to Miranda for taking Fabricio from her. Miranda told Florencia to think only of herself and promise to be happy. Florencia said, "Thank you for being my sister."

Cesar told his co-worker Luis Alberto, who is somehow involved in Cesar's financial misdoings, that Julio fired him. Luis Alberto said he can't stay at the company without Cesar, that he will quit, but Cesar said, "No one will suspect you. I need you here in the business."

Gonzalo told Julio he shouldn't have fired Cesar, saying, "This is MY business." Julio said all his sons' money is tied up in the business, and that Gonzalo should stop thinking about Florencia's wedding and start worrying about the fact that the company is ruined.

On the way to the wedding, Rebeca told Fernanda, "I don't know what Gonzalo will do when he sees you." She asked where Fernanda has been all these years, and Fernanda said, "You think I was with a man. The man is dead. You know why? Gonzalo killed him." Rebeca said tsk tsk to this. (She didn't seem very shocked.)

Nuria asked Cesar where he will go now that he has been fired, and Cesar said nastily, "What does it matter to you? It is your fault, only your fault, that I lost my job!" Then he suddenly apologized, kissed her, and claimed that he will marry her in a few days.

Gonzalo told some men in his office not to worry about the company's investment losses, that they will recover the money soon.

Alejandro's father, Alfredo Luque, was a famous jeweler. Bertha has been hoarding a portfolio of his designs. She had one of them made into a necklace. The jeweler said it's worth $50,000. Bertha said to herself, "If you want your father's designs, Alejandro, the price is love for me."

Florencia told Miranda that she's upset because Bertha isn't coming to the wedding. She said Bertha's been like a mother to them. Miranda disagreed and called Bertha an ugly spinster.
